Answer:

150 pennies were lost altogether

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the initial number of pennies owned by Dante be x pennies

Let the initial number of pennies owned by Mia be y pennies

Mathematically ;

x + y = 350 •••••••(i)

So after losing half, dante will have x/2 pennies left.

Mia lost 1/3 so she will have 2/3y left

So after all the losses, they both had equal amount of pennies

This means that;

x/2 = 2y/3

Cross multiply;

3x = 4y •••••••(ii)

Let’s solve both equations simultaneously;

From i , x = 350-y

Substitute this into equation ii

3(350-y) = 4y

1050-3y = 4y

7y = 1050

y = 1050/7

y = 150

since x = 350-y

x = 350-150 = 200

Now Dante loss x/2 = 200/2 = 100

Mia lost 1/3y = 1/3 * 150 = 50

Total pennies lost = 100 + 50 = 150

Answer:

x= -2

Step-by-step explanation:

Rational Function can be expressed as:

\displaystyle \large{y =  \frac{a}{p(x - b)}  + q}

Where b is our horizontal shift and q is our vertical shift.

For asymptotes, there are two types which are vertical and horizontal.

Vertical Asymtote is the value of -b itself or x = -b.

Therefore, from the functio:

\displaystyle   \large{y =  \frac{10}{x + 2} }

Our vertical asymtote is x = -2

2=ln(x+7) solve for x
maria [59]

Answer:

e^2 -7 = x

Step-by-step explanation:

2=ln(x+7)

Raise each side to the base of e

e^2 = e^ln (x+7)

The e^ln cancel

e^2 = x+7

Subtract 7 from each side

e^2 -7 = x +7-7

e^2 -7 = x
